A revelatory guide to creativity in business from Nike's pioneering Chief Marketing Officer.

'The marketing genius behind Nike . . . Greg Hoffman has inspired me tremendously' β€” Steven Bartlett, author of Happy Sexy Millionaire

How did Nike go from being a small sneaker brand to the world's most revered company? Why do its campaignsβ€” from 'Just do it' to the famous Nike swooshβ€”capture the imaginations of millions worldwide? And what can any founder or marketer learn from them?

Greg Hoffman joined Nike as a 22-year-old design intern. Over the next thirty years, he would help craft some of the most iconic campaigns in historyβ€”for Ronaldo and Serena, Olympic Games, and World Cup finals. Now, he unveils a transformative method that will make any brand more creative: emotion by design.

'Great story, amazing career, so inspirational . . . I couldn't put it down' β€” Chris Evans

'The ultimate playbook to unleash creativity in any team' β€” Jake Humphrey, author of High Performance

'An unforgettable account of a man and a business that never had to try to be someone else's idea of coolβ€”because they had already defined it themselves' β€” Rory Sutherland, Vice-Chairman of Ogilvy and author of Alchemy
